Ask A Kid

This is something that I saw done on someone's Facebook wall. Her daughter, who is 4 years old, answered the questions.

I thought, "How cute! I wonder what my 4-year old would say... Am I brave enough to ask him these questions? He might tell the truth. He might say that I always yell or that I always tell him "No!" or that my favorite thing to do is sit at the computer."

Well, I'll never know until I try.

So I called Josh over beside me, and this is what he said.
